GRAMMY AWARD winning Melissa Arnette Elliott (born July
1, 1971), known professionally as Missy Elliott, is an American rapper,
singer, songwriter, and record producer.
She embarked on her music career with R&B girl group Sista
in the early-mid 1990s and later became a member of the Swing Mob collective
along with childhood friend and longtime collaborator
Timbaland, with whom she
worked on projects for American R&B acts Aaliyah, 702, Total, and
SWV. Following several collaborations
and guest appearances, she launched her solo career in 1997 with her debut
album, Supa Dupa Fly, which spawned the top 20 single "Sock It 2 Me". The
album debuted at number three on the Billboard 200, the highest charting debut
for a female rapper at the time.
Missy Elliott has been referred to as the "Queen of

Vanguard Award for her impact on the music video landscape. In 2020, Billboard
